Black Lives Matter.
As a public interest law firm committed to environmental and civil rights for over 50 years, Terris, Pravlik & Millian stands with the DC community and with Black people across the country against discrimination, brutality, and systemic racism in all forms. We are deeply saddened and angered by the murder of George Floyd at the hands of the police. We also grieve the lives of Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and countless others.
While TPM strives to achieve justice though legal means, we also recognize that throughout history and even today, the law has been used as a weapon to deny justice to Black people. As lawyers, we firmly believe that the Constitution must be fairly applied and enforced, whether it is on the street or in the courtroom. We will continue to advocate for the rights of all people, especially those who are underserved and underrepresented in the legal system.
Black lives matter now and always.
